After a lot of thinking, I have come up with my predictions for Sunday’s Golden Globes. Most of the nominated movies I have seen; but there are some I haven’t and I’m making logical guesses based on positive reviews and word of mouth. So those predictions are marked with a (*). I gave each prediction a short statement as to why it’s my choice. So, with no further interruptions, I present….
My Predictions for the 2011 Golden Globes!!!!!
BEST PICTURE- DRAMA: The King’s Speech (I would be very happy to see this inspirational movie win this award. It was very historically accurate and it truly was an emotional masterpiece.)
BEST PICTURE- MUSICAL OR COMEDY: The Kids Are Alright (*) (I haven’t seen this movie but I hear it’s very good and very moving.)
BEST DIRECTOR: Tom Hooper- The King’s Speech (He conducted the core performers’ amazing performances and he’s most likely going to get recognized)
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A SUPPORTING ROLE IN A MOTION PICTURE: Geoffrey Rush- The King’s Speech (This is a difficult choice because Christian Bale really went very far for his role. But I do see Geoffrey Rush winning; he was very first-class in this movie. But if Christian Bale does win, then I’d be very happy being wrong. In fact, I’d be very happy if either Rush or Bale won.)
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A SUPPORTING ROLE IN A MOTION PICUTRE: Helena Bonham Carter- The King’s Speech (Definitely see her winning for her great performance)
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A MOTION PICTURE- DRAMA: Colin Firth- The King’s Speech (No surprise. He was terrific as the eventual King of England and he gave an elegant and uplifting performance. It’s his time)
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A MOTION PICTURE- DRAM,A: Natalie Portman- Black Swan (*) (She’s been getting a lot of positive press for her performance and she’s definitely the favorite in this category)
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A MOTION PICTURE- MUSICAL OR COMEDY: Johnny Depp- Alice in Wonderland (I definitely see him winning for this movie mainly because of all the hype he gotten before and after the film)
BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTRESS IN A MOTION PICTURE- MUSICAL OR COMEDY: Annette Benning- The Kids Are Alright (*) (I did not see this movie but I hear she gave a very striking performance and is destined to win the Academy Award as well).
So these are my predictions for Sunday night. However, I’m going to try to review one more nominated film before then. And during the ceremony, I’m going to blog my comments on who is winning and whether or not any of my predictions have come true. While we wait for Sunday, you could comment on my predictions and post your own on my blog or my Facebook page. You can check out who is nominated for which movie by going to http://www.imdb.com/features/globes/2011/nominations. So have fun and let’s look forward to an exciting weekend and a lot more Nater-Tainment!!
